MAGIC – ALCHEMY: INSTANT, REALISTIC MAGIC SOUND EFFECTS
MAGIC – ALCHEMY is a professional sound effects library built from real chemical reactions and elemental forces. It delivers short, character-rich magic sound effects perfect for spellcasting, magical UI design, and fantasy storytelling. Designed to sit cleanly in a mix and shimmer with personality, these spell sounds are ideal for games, trailers, audio dramas and more. Real reactions, recorded with obsessive detail.
Magic Sounds from Real Chemical Reactions
No digital fakery here. Every sound in MAGIC – ALCHEMY began as a live experiment — alcohol burning in jars, butane growling through pipes, fuses igniting, water swirling in glass. These are true-to-life textures, captured in a lab-grade recording setup. The result? Magical sound with depth, realism, and spark.
Short, Sharp, and Ready to Use
These are not long, cinematic flourishes. This library is about immediacy — short, dry, punchy magic effects that are easy to slot into your project. Ideal for game asset design, magical feedback sounds, and trailer moments where clarity counts.
Three Spell Flavours: Holy, Cursed, Neutral
Need a healing chime, a cursed hex, or something more ambiguous? The Designed section is grouped into Holy, Cursed, and Neutral categories — giving you emotional options that match your scene’s intent, whether you’re crafting a fantasy RPG or a subtle magical interaction.
Built for Professionals, Whatever You Create
Whether you’re layering magic for a fantasy film, adding interactive audio to a mobile game, or creating rich textures for audiobooks or theatre, MAGIC – ALCHEMY fits right in. It’s mix-ready, flexible, and full of sonic character.

What We Recorded
We turned our studio into a makeshift sound lab — with ventilation rigs, fire extinguishers, and a healthy respect for what might go wrong. Using everyday materials and controlled chaos, we ignited fuses, torched liquids, boiled water, and provoked real chemical reactions. The aim? To bottle that unpredictable energy and give sound designers raw, reactive magic that sounds genuinely alive.
What’s so special about this library?
This is magic grounded in physics, not fantasy fluff. Short spells. Real-world textures. Emotional categories. Whether you’re designing feedback for a magic UI or a full-on cinematic spell battle, this library delivers magical sound that’s fast, versatile, and full of character. It’s weird, wonderful, and ready to drop into your next mix.
When BOOM Library creates a magic sound effect library, we don’t mess about. For MAGIC – ALCHEMY, lead sound designer Fabio Coressel quite literally turned our studio into a working alchemy lab.
The result is a magic sound collection packed with short, punchy magic effects that have real personality. Whether you’re designing spells for games, working on fantasy films, or layering enchanted audio in trailers or audiobooks, this library delivers usable, character-rich assets that sound alive.
